A new frontier built against all odds
 Although Tamsui enjoys a great advantage in tourism, tourists mostly will go to the riverside while ignoring the mountain areas. It is exactly because of this that the mountains manage to keep their cultural purity and picturesque scenes untouched by development. Thus, it is a prime site for the promotion of a sustainable and environmentally safe recreational farming business. Only through sustainable development can we protect the beauty of nature for our children.
The main concept behind our sustainable recreational farming comprises the three linked ideas of life, eco-system and production. The promotion of recreational farming as a tourist industry provides the opportunity for farmers in the mountain area to interact with tourists from all places in addition to their day-to-day farming production. The interaction between tourists and farmers will change the life-style of the community and improve the living standard of the local population. Striking a balance between eco-system and human production is a difficult mission, and it’s worthy our joint planning and efforts. |
